How Has MFC Affected You?

Eh. Wither or not you're hot doesn't matter. People want to put a face to the person they've come to be friends with.

So damn true. Had that discussion with someone I was starting to consider a friend, when he asked if he should get a cam.

Well, not so much MFC itself as the models I've had the privilege to get to know have given me a wake up call. There are a few models I first encountered at another site and I found them again at MFC while the old site was going through some changes. Three of them work in the same studio. I had a chance to get to know them a bit better through MFC and we are sort of friends now.

Anyhoo, a couple of them mentioned that they wanted to see me on cam. At first I didn't feel like it, but I went and got one yesterday and set it up. Now webcams rarely make anyone look better than they do IRL, but I look awful. I've let myself go over the past few years and I need to get in shape. It's not even so much to look reasonably presentable to hot, young internet babes I'll never meet, but I've had some health problems and hell, who wants to die looking like a fat fuck, anyway?

So yeah. Wish me luck.

i don't know how much looking at myself on cam was a factor but being on MFC and talking to beautiful people made me start getting in shape. I was 310 lbs and now 260.. that was over months and the last months i have stayed about the same. i would love to get to 200. I dunno if thats going to happen. What it really showed me was i ate an AMAZING amount of food to stay a fat bastard. i stopped trying to kill myself with food and i dropped weight.
SO Good Luck DUDE.. eat less calories than you use in a day and your weight goes down. period.

- Even though I don't do cum shows very often... if I still do like too many, it takes me faaaar longer. And if I'm fresh out of a month-long period with little-to-no-playing it'll take me less than 30 seconds.
- Made my non-24-hour sleep schedule go completely into full-blast.
- I've made a few really really close friends out of my regulars.

And it's affected me greatly in other ways that are too personal to share on here.

Pros:
-Rent and bills fully paid without any help @ 19 years old
-Tuition bills getting helped
- Learning (About people, myself, and the world)
- Connecting to others
-Making a difference in someone's life
-Inspiring people to be healthier and happier (Food, exercise, relationships)
-Always having a place to vent, get horny, try out my comedy routine, or just chill
- Getting inspired (research, lyrics, videos, actions, community work)
-Saving money for retirement and a family
-Feeling okay with my fetishes or wants in the bedroom
-Meeting a few best friends
-Forming lasting relationships with people
-Releasing sexual tension
-Forming a closer relationship with my dad (since he knows what I do, along with the rest of my family)
-Getting closer with family (They are all concerned that MFC is going to negatively affect me. They call daily to check on my emotions.)
-Helping girls find their true selves through webcam
-Getting paid to workout, go to school, eat, shower, clean, and be myself
-Wanting the truly good guys (no more bad boys)

Cons:
-Learning (things I didn't want to know, but have learned them)
- Becoming meaner: Having to deal with people talking shit to me all day has conditioned me to respond to humans in a more harsh way.

-Being judged as a whore/pornstar/not worthy (even though I don't take my clothes off)
-Explaining to people I work on a site where pornography occurs, but I don't take part
-Trying to find a guy that will not get jealous of this job/look down on it
- Getting addicted to being watched on cam (Even though I love my alone time, I have come to liking being watched all of the time.)

-Lower self-esteem: feeling like people only like me when I'm being sexy.
-Being able to stay up and dance for 48 hours to make rent (it's a con because its unhealthy! lol)
-BECOMING A WORKAHOLIC (MFC is just too much fun! Blogging, twitter, camming, games, toys, models, guys who want you, etc.)
-Getting greedy at times (more more more! )
-Wanting to talk business all of the time
-Getting more annoyed by annoying people in my waking life, because it's easier to deal with people online
-Buying more things and feeling like I want more "things"
- Feeling pressure to find someone who loves me for who I am (and not what I do)
-Convincing guys who like me that: I don't take off my clothes, I don't want any other guys, I just want them etc.
-----Guys in general, are harder to deal with in real life now. It was hard for me before being prude, and now it's even harder being a prude who works on MFC! They honestly don't believe me, and what I do on my show until they see it. And Still then think "Oh come on I know you can't pay this rent without getting naked." And it totally is a put down, let down, and makes me feel like worthless shit.
---Ex-boyfriend told me about this happening and I didn't listen
--Losing the ability to love and trust fully

Mfc has lowered my tolerance for idiocy and rudeness. I've lost a lot of my build to anger and my patience has grown thin. It's not good for my personal relationships, or my myfreecams relationships. My bitch slap reflex is growing stronger and thats something I don't like. I've also started smoking religiously again when I get stressed with idiots, which sucks since I had been quit for 10 months =/

Perhaps I should spend less time on MFC, let my patience build back up or something.

I've experienced the exact opposite. Well almost

My tolerance for idiocy and rudeness has always been low, and I still don't like it, but I deal with it much better than I used to. My patience with stupid people is better now than it was before (which is good when you work with the people I do).

It helps me relax and usually I sleep better.

ya strange how both can be true, i can now more easily ignore the blatant, obvious idiots and i have a shorter fuse for people that i think should know better.

I am late to work often because of either staying up too late on MFC and sleeping through my alarm or dropping by MFC in the morning before work and losing track of time. I almost got fired because of it once... which is why I need to reimpliment my 11 PM (Eastern Time) sign-off time during the work week (despite the teasing I receive!) and stop visiting in the mornings I reckon.

So I am going to drudge up this ol' thread (not quite old enough to be necromancy imho though) to report that in just a month and a half's time, my feelings on this have changed.

I am now rarely late and share in responsibility for it when it happens is split between MFC and WoW. I am also happy to report that I feel overall that MFC has enriched my internet life at least... and perhaps more. Through it I have met several models who make me feel appreciated for just hanging out with them despite me not being able to tip them as much as I want or they deserve. Not only that, though, as I have also created what I would consider friendships with a pretty fair number of fellow premiums who have a model or two in common with me. Thanks guys and gals. It means more to me than you might realize.

I've actually started mentioning my MFC life from time to time in certain relevant conversations in real life.
